Client Types : Adults.

Hi, I’m Kate, a registered psychotherapist dedicated to helping people feel supported, understood, and to create meaningful change in their lives.

You may be looking at therapy to

• Get things off your chest - just saying it to someone
• Understand yourself better - why you feel triggered, recognising patterns
• Grow - to experience more peace, confidence or healthier relationships
• Notice behaviours that hurt - anxiety spirals, lack of boundaries, self-doubt, coping mechanisms
• Not feel so alone in pain - recent losses and old wounds
• You don't have to be in crisis to access therapy, sometimes it can feel like we're stuck in a loop. We know something needs to change, we just can't seem to break the cycle, and a little help is needed.

Approach : My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in compassion. I work with clients to explore what’s happening beneath the surface, build emotional resilience, and develop practical tools for everyday life. My goal is to create a safe, non judgmental environment where you can show up exactly as you are.

I trained as a nurse in my twenties, and some 20 years later began training as a Psychotherapist. I decided to retrain as a psychotherapist after gaining meaning from sitting and talking with patients in my care as a nurse, especially on night shift when things may come to the surface.

As a nurse I worked in both public and private hospital settings, in a range of areas. As a psychotherapist I have been working in a residential rehabilitation centre, which has been meaningful to help people find their way through substance issues.

Common issues that people have seen me for include:

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Stress
• Painful Memories
• Family issues/Relationship issues
• Substance issues

I would also like to add that I am happy to help if I am not quite the right therapist for you, and can refer you to someone that can.
